WEDNESDAY, MAR. 19, 1913 Haircutting has advanced two editorials on the ques tion of hazing. There is one phase of hazing, however, that has not been touched upon and that is "haircutting". Our customs are rapidly changing; we have passed the period in which so-called class battles were fought with stones, pieces of pipe, clubs, etc. Since the forms of "barbarism" shown the first year's men have diminish ed, less class feeling has resulted an. th 6 tendency has becomy more general for mutual feelinifrom all classes toward the Blue 'and White. Haircutting is one of the few dis agreeable features that now remains. Not only is this act especially embarrassing to the per- son so unfortunate as to have the judgment of the "rough-neck" ele ment visited upon him, but from a broader standpoint what an im mense amount of harm to the col lege does such an act cause in a community where it is made appar- Here is something for the class of 1916. There are other forms of making men live up to college cus toms. Even in times past when hazing was widely countenanced, a haircut was the extreme penalty. It is the aim of each class to do at least one thing that will go down in tradition. What more important resolution could be adopted than the settlement of this last extremely disagreeable phase of our student regulation? After this issue The New the new Editorial Editorial Staff Staff will assume charge of the Penn State Collegian. To the new men, we wish them success in the work that should and can be made in time one of the greatest factors in Penn State—that of having a real live up-to-date daily college paper. Realizing as do the three retiring senior editors, all the pleasures and at the same time difficulties that arise in connection with a year of journalism, our hope is that the faculty and student body will coop erate with the new board as in years past, a fact that will assure that next year's "Collegian", under the efficiency of the new staff, will by far excel previous editions. However, to make this paper a success requires financial support. Is it too much to suggest that the "other four" also pay as the fifth one has done? To date not more than twenty per cent of the enrolled student body have paid subscrip tions. The time seems to be at hand to make big advancement in size and the number of issues pub lished, but progress cannot be made under the present circumstances. Something that "Prep" School has become more Insignia apparent this win- ter than in former years in the wearing of "prep" school letters and insignia. To a college man the earlier honors gained on the girdiron, diamond and track are as past history. The Penn State idealism in not what you did or what your widely pro claimed marks of distinction indi cate what you did before coming to college, but rather what have you done for your class and your col lege since entering here. Further more, the wearing of such insignia, while it means little to the student body as a whole, is a downright act of disrespect to the athlete who has worked hard and earned his "S." Last year marked the abolish ment of the individual class colors and class insignia—a step that did much toward uniting classes to work for their Alma Mater rather than the class. Does this not ap ply to_other_inclEris L I et las for get our past accomplishments and all turn our thoughts toward the future. "Collegian" Because of the The Hospital fact of the large Question amount of sickness prevalent in State College this winter (and the limited capacity of caring for such) the question of obtaining aid toward the hospital proposition is very timely just before vacation. The present fund contains $5OOO, Govenor Tener has pledged himself responsible for raising $4OOO and Senator Penrose has promised $lOOO more, so the appeal is made to the student body to try during the vacation to inter est some wealthy person, in our need of proper medical attention. the names of any such persons will be gladly received by Mrs. C. D. Fehr, the chairman of the com mittee. Following the call The Call for candidates for the For , Editorial Staff, as was Candidates announced last week, a call is made for sopho mores desiring to compete for the one open position on the Business Staff of this paper. All names should be addressed to L. B. Keelan immediately following Easter week. The June in June comes at Examinations the best time of the year. We who have been here before can doubtless ap preciate the difficulty in trying to study for the home stretch. To the new men, do not put off the grind until the last.

THE SENIOR MEMORIAL Plans for Senior Gift to the College the 1913 memorial committee composed of Messrs. Steel, Light, Miller, Reeves and Wilson have worked diligently in originating , and preparing plans for a sutiable memorial to be presented to the college by the senior class. The committee after careful considera tion arrived at the conclusion that some well appearing entrance to Main Building would be suitable, and this is the proposition the com e' -o Tstofteft to the — ad - grit represents. The plans call for a beautiful entrance, a terrace and a circular arrangement of seats, the latter of which will be erected at the expense of the college. Both the Architectural and the Land scape Gardening Departments of this college have already approved these plans and affirm that if they are carried out, it will tend to relieve the monotonous effect of the pres ent entrance. Two thousand dol lars will be necessary to accomplish the proposed undertaking. The committee hopes to have the plans realized by Commencement Day so that at this time the dedication by the senior class may take place. John Walker Powell, All Western guard for three years, President of the Alumni Association, and voted the most popular preacher of the University of Minnesota, gave an address on Sunday, which was greatly appreciated by the student body. Rev. Dr. Charles Erdman, a pop ular professor at Princeton Univer sity, and who for a number of years has been intensely interested in the problems of railroad men, will very probably preach on the first Sun day after vacation. The Young Men's Christian Association is in debt about $4OO. An appeal is made to the student body to do all in its power to help eliminate this deficit. Help the Association to close the yeir with a clean slate. Examination time President and Mrs. Sparks will visit Governor Tener during the time of The Thespian performance at Harrisburg. They will be guests at the Executive Mansion during their stay in that city.
